Jason Hull Creates Vintage Illuminating Comfort in the Dark
Meghan Young — November 16, 2011 — Art & Design
If there is one thing that has really lodged itself into the hearts of many this year and the last, it would definitely be retro cameras and vintage photography; Jason Hull provides yet another example of why this is the case. He has cleverly converted old flash cameras into hipster nightlights. Instead of littering one's house of kiddy products, Jason Hull provides a great alternative.
Based in Oakland, California, Jason Hull scours flea markets and garage sales for these retro film cameras. From there, he pares them down in order to not only focus on the flash part, but to also create nightlights that are more lightweight so that it does do any damage to sockets. Jason Hull then adds a plug-in and different types of lights.
